"Trajectory: Up? It’s easy to win the first offseason after being hired. The fans who had grown tired of the Richt regime are excited about their shiny new toy. Excitement and enthusiasm surround the Georgia program as Smart seems to say and do all the right things to excite his fan base. Plus he’s a homegrown coach, which only adds to the positivity. But if his team lays an egg in the opener against North Carolina, the fans’ tone will change quickly. This seems to be a great hire with six months left until the Bulldogs play their first game. It seemed that way at Florida too, when the Gators hired Smart’s old buddy, fellow UGA alum and former SEC defensive coordinator Will Muschamp -- only that decision did not work out so well. Any prediction today about Georgia’s trajectory would be nothing more than guesswork. Let’s see how Smart fares once the season begins."
I hope the Tar Heels help UGA lay an egg.
This is the X factor for UNC's defense to stop:
" The backfield still looks great, particularly if Nick Chubb returns to the form that made him one of the nation’s top running backs up to his gruesome season-ending knee injury against Tennessee last fall. A healthy Chubb and Sony Michel would give Georgia one of the SEC’s top backfield combinations, which would help take the stress off the quarterback and receiver positions early in the season."
